[ 12, 13] Different types of cost-effectiveness analyses are available to evaluate packages of interventions in terms of their cost-effectiveness.
There are different types of cost cutting.
Although there are several published reviews on the different types of decision analysis (cost-effectiveness, cost-benefit, cost-utility), there is limited information in the spine literature regarding the mathematical models used in these studies (decision tree, Markov modeling, Monte Carlo simulation).
We recommend two types of cost-effectiveness calculations - average cost effectiveness, and incremental cost effectiveness.
However, to date, no studies has systematically summarised current economic evidence to compare the impact of different types of prostheses on costs and cost-effectiveness.
32 There are different types of economic evaluations, but cost-effectiveness analysis and cost-utility analysis are usually the preferred analyses that help decision makers in the allocation of restricted health care resources.
This review will document how cost estimates may be defined as well as the differing type of cost analyses (i.e., cost efficiency versus cost-effectiveness).
Future research should include randomized controlled trials comparing different types of I-CE or instructional elements; cost effectiveness studies; and development and evaluation of instruments to measure clinicians' performances.
A cost-utility analysis (CUA) is a type of cost-effectiveness analysis that incorporates the preferences of individuals for different treatment-related outcomes [ 10, 11].
In the public health approach of CART in resource-limited settings there is currently no consensus on the type, frequency and cost effectiveness of different types of monitoring (virological, immunological or clinical).
The model was not designed to evaluate the cost effectiveness of different types of intermittent catheters in children.
